FRENCH EXCITED.
Mr.. Wilson Roundly Denounced at q
Republican Meeting.

PARIS, Oct. 26.
A republican meeting was held at Tours,
last night The town was excited all day.
Soldiers were stat ioned in the streets ada
cent to keep order. When the doors we're
opened, terrific crush ensued, and the
building was crsmmed in a few minutes,
thousands being unable to obtain admission.
Roche of the Intransigant made fierce on
slought on Wilson, accusing him of ell kinds
of jobbery, and particularly of using Presi-
dent Grevy's franking stamp for private pur-
poses.
The speech was received withiwild cheers,
but Wilson remained calm. At this point
the crowd outside forced the doors and
stormed the platform.
In the course Of his reply, Wilson sought
to alter the discussion. He expressed regret
that the republicans should thus accuse one
another in the presence of reactionsry parties
who gained strength by their divisions.
At this point he was interrupted by cries of
''there is no political party against you only
the indignation of honest men.'
Wilson became very angry. He refused to
answer the charge of using President Grevy's
franking mark and closed at midnight in
great disorder, the crowd shouting Resign"
"Resigu," "Vive Boulanger."

aries who can speak from personal observa
fion OF this work. remember the region a.
1t vas during the war, and seeing the puff of
guns two-thirds up the mountain, and shells
were sent into the city over four miles dis
tant. Gods righteous retribution went down
through Cumberland mountain. There is
now there widely spread poor race of sturdy
blood, and one that has great possibilities, As
johnson and Lincoln prove. The caste ques-
ton comfronts us here. There is temp
tstion to temporize for the sake of making
our schools more acceptable He told very
effective story of Virginia planter at the
close of the war, who was brought up before
the provost marshal and was greatly amazed
at the idea that walloping "nigger" could
be an assault and battery. Summers favorite
maxim was equality of rights is the first of
all rights. John A. Andrew wrote Il know
not what may await me in another world, but
l know | was never mean enough to despise
man because he is black. Principle can
not be compromised. The effort has cost
the country priceless lives aud billions of
money. In dark tunnel in Cumberland
Mountain, soldier said, 'Never mind, boys,
there's daylight ahead" We also shall see
daylight if we don't give up our foundation
principle.
Rev F. E. Jenkins of Williamsburg. KY,
one of the missionaries then said that the
field of work among the mountain whites is
large one stretching 500 miles north aud
south by 200 miles east to west with 22. 500
600 people, whose condition it is very hard
to paint to you. He drew picture of these
poor log cabins with only two rooms to live,
eat, sleep and die in. Their schools were
held from 3 to months in worse buildings
with onlysa few of the children in attendance.
Their only book is the spelling book on the
theory that it is all right if you only get all
the words in. All talk a. the top of their
voices which probably give them their COM
mon name of "blab schools" Seventy
per cent of them are nothing else and their
churches ara on the same level In some of
the revivals they may have '.jined the min
ister," but this does not interfere with drink
ing swearing or impurity, for which neither
ministers nor members are ever disciplined
Rev. G, Phillips of Rutland, VT, was the
last speaker of the afternoon, and spoke very
earnestly on mount Nn work.
The evening session of the American Mis-
sionary Association was very largely attend
ed, an overflow meeting being nece sssry.
President Hyde of Bowdoin College spoke
very ably on "The Nerve of Missions" fol-
lowed by Hon. Nelson Dingley, Yam Phon
Lee and Rev. w. II. S. Aubery of England.

MAINE DISPATCHES.
TEEMER VS.. GADAUR.
The Race on the Lake Expected to be a
Hot One.

WINTHROP, Oct 26.
The arrangements are all complete for the
Teemer and Gaudaur boat race tomorrow,
which will decide the championship of
America for some time to come. Excitement
here is at fever heat. Both contestants have
many friends in this vicinity and betting men
are willing to back their favorites to the
last dollar. Both men are in fine condition
and they mean blood to the last.
think neither of the men are fully conf
dent concerning the result so evenly are they
matched, yet Teemer says Gaudaur seems to
be rowing better than when he beat Teemer
last.
The only question is how much better can
Gaudaur last. The principals, trainers, and
companions of the oarsmen are just in from
a practice spin. Large crowds have lined
the shores to witness their exhibitions the
last day before the race.
Both of them have evinced that they are
capable of doing some splendid work. and
will probably lower the three mile record to-
morrow. The water this afternoon has been
fine, and indications point to a good day to
morrow and very large attendance.
Should the weather prove unfavorable, the
race will be postponed until the first calm
day, according to an arrangement made be
tween them when the match was made, al
both men cannot do good work 10 rough
water and they are anxious to have tai
race under favorable circumstances, to rightly
determine which is the best man. Unless
the wind should be strongly from the south
it will not materially affect the course.

There are four cases of diphtheria in this
village. The High, Grammar, and Inter.
mediate schools have suspended on that
account. In 1886, 'S7, '88 there were seventy
deaths from that dread disease in
this vicinity. 1t was then contended
by some of our physicians that the
disease was not contagious and many
believed 1t, while observation taugh,
that every public funeral and sick
room was spreading the disease broadcast
through the whole community. Our village
can never be healthy until thirty acre bog
and mud-pond bounding it on the west ant
filled with stagnant water and decayed
vegetation is thoroughly drained and the
land reclaimed which can be easily done By
the expenditure of few hundred dollars.
